Hi Brian..if the collections are paid off you should be able to get to that high of an LTV, providing you can verify income.

For a $300,000 property, this could be $6,000 to $15,000.Mortgage on Rental Property:Loan Amount: $240,000 (assuming 80% financed at 4% interest over 30 years).Monthly Payment: Approximately $1,145.Other Expenses:Property Taxes: Estimated at 1.5% of property value annually ($4,500).Insurance: Estimated at $1,500 annually.Maintenance: Estimated at 1% of property value annually ($3,000).Property Management Fees: Assuming 10% of monthly rental income ($2,400 annually if rent is $2,000 per month).Vacancy and Turnover Costs: 5% of annual rental income ($1,200).Total Initial Investment and Annual Operating ExpensesInitial Investment:Total Borrowed from Equity: $150,000Down Payment for Rental Property: $60,000Closing Costs for Rental Property: $10,500 (average)Total Initial Cash Outlay: $70,500 (initial investment from equity) + $10,500 (closing costs)Annual Operating Expenses:Property Taxes: $4,500Insurance: $1,500Maintenance: $3,000Property Management Fees: $2,400Vacancy and Turnover Costs: $1,200Total Operating Expenses: $12,600 annuallyExpected ReturnRental Income:Assuming $2,000 per month, annual rental income = $24,000.Net Operating Income (NOI):Annual Rental Income: $24,000Minus Annual Operating Expenses: $12,600NOI: $11,400Debt Service:Mortgage Payment on Rental Property: $1,145 monthly, $13,740 annually.Total Debt Service: $13,740 (rental property) + $8,592 (equity loan) = $22,332 annually.Net Cash Flow:NOI: $11,400Minus Debt Service: $22,332Net Cash Flow: -$10,932 annually (negative cash flow initially due to high debt service).Cash-on-Cash ReturnInitial Cash Investment: $70,500Net Cash Flow (first year): -$10,932Cash-on-Cash Return: Not applicable initially due to negative cash flow.Long-Term Appreciation and AdjustmentsProperty Appreciation:Assuming a 3% annual appreciation, the property value could increase by $9,000 annually.Rent Increases:Assuming a 2% annual rent increase, rental income will rise, improving cash flow.

I file jointly and we are able to put enough of our income into a retirement plan that we can be below 89,000 in income (including rental income).

If they pass the background check and show income, then well OK.

Additionally, investing in opportunity zones, often found in these areas, offers great tax benefits.

In addition there are a wide range of grants HUD supports in most cities to improve a property to rent to low income people.Perhaps the best decission in looking at section 8 and low income rentales are the larger assets of using the contract incentives and special financing programs that only exist to those who provide services and employ your tenant that you could benefit from.

But you're missing a key number, how much is the income?   

They are not tax related since unless you elect to be taxed as a c corp (which you should not do here) the income and expenses flow onto your personal tax return 

I am currently not making much income however next year I will be making 70,000 and it will grow from there.

(The property’s home state and your state of tax residence will both want money if they collect income tax.)If the property is only in his name you avoid all the taxes by waiting until his death to give your daughter the property.
